I lost 70$ today. I let Robot have my first two trades of the day. He lost me 140$ dollars and then I was down 200$. It was a strange day. I went from down 200 to up 200 to down 200 to up 200 to down 70. In the last half hour I ran four short trades in appl. And every time I looked at my p&l it was not moving, I kept wondering how bad it would have been if I had not kept making those appl shorts.
I'm up against the wall. If happens to me a lot. I get to a point where I'm so close to meet a bigger goal and things get haywire. The second time I was up 200 the first thing I started doing was changing stops to keep my 200 from disappearing. before I was halfway through my list I was already in the red again. Having a huge list of holdings just came up and bit me. Now I'm down to about 9.
Robot: 13 winners, 10 losers, minus 403$. What a stupid day to let him trade my money. He had been on a winning streak lately.
Other stuff: Wow, it's fricking cold in here. My thermometers say it's 60 but that can't be right. How could I get frostbite at 60 degrees?
Fantasy calls: huh what?
